What’s included?

We will normally spend time on site reviewing some or all of the following revenue areas of your business.

Strategy – what’s the vision and mission and are they embraced throughout the firm? And what kind of change is necessary and can be expected to be embraced by the team?

Marketing – what is the current messaging, and how does it align with the goals and objectives assigned? What is the likely potential of identified markets and what methods will lead to rapid and sustained market penetration?

Sales – what is the best model for revenue optimization, direct, indirect, OEM or licensing? What is the skill level and potential for growth within the existing staff? Are they effectively aligned with the expectations of their management, including compensation plan alternatives that will create a more “driven” effort?

People – what are the identifiable attributes that will most likely lead to success and how do the existing personnel fit into that model? What is the optimal team configuration? What training can be provided that will immediately enhance productivity? Does the sales force understand and routinely utilize account planning and account mapping techniques?

Process – what are the processes and methodologies that can most effectively improve sales and achieve quicker more sustained growth? What tools can be implemented to accelerate revenue? What can be done to assure an “annuity’ relationship with the firms customers?

Metrics – do the reported metrics give the best picture of what is occurring and facilitate oversight and performance improvement?

Management – are the processes and skills in place that allow for effective oversight? What can management implement/change that would directly lead to revenue performance improvement?
